I've had a west-facing office for years, and I don't think the sunsets are any different than they usually are. What =is= different is that it's usually too damned cold to go out and enjoy them, and so far this winter has been balmy.

Did I miss noting a large volcanic eruption far to the west? Is it the unusually high winds of late stirring up particles? a big fire (in the case of my neighborhood) in New Jersey? Pollution contributes here, I'm guessing, but it isn't all industrial I'm thinking. Weather buffs, what is going on? Nice that y'all like the photo I took from the roof but really, any of you in the same place would certainly have gotten a similar shot or better. and I wager there are a ton of shots of this sunset on the web by other photogs in the area. at the same time, when I saw the color out my window I was on the phone with a friend in the Boston area and cut short the conversation after yelping "oh wow" ... he said he had just talked to a friend in Brookline who had said the sunset was spectacular a few minutes before we were speaking.
